Py4J 0.7 has just been released!
This release includes the following new features:
- Major refactoring to support Python 3. Thanks to Alex Grönholm for his
patch.
- The build and setup files have been totally changed. Py4J no longer
requires Paver to build and everything is done through ant. The setup.py
file only uses distutils.
- Added support for Java byte[]: byte array are passed by value and
converted to bytearray or bytes.
- Py4J package name changed from Py4J to py4j.
- Bug fixes in the Python callback server and unicode support.
The specific issues are discussed on GitHub:

Although I'm still using Py4J everyday, I do not need many more features
so future development will be mostly driven by feature requests and bug
reports. Feel free to contact me or to write a feature request on GitHub!
Cheers,
Barthélémy
